Same that already burn in ukraine

You know you are wrong. Everybody knows you are wrong. Don't play that game.

@@elcormoran1 But Sweden haven't sent them yet so how can they burn in Ukraine? ^^

@@elcormoran1 400 been burned already since the war started

@@elcormoran1 Lol Russian troll living in a fantasy world CV-90 aren´t delievered yet but hey keep on dreaming orc.

Yes, but that is us Swedes, for Ukrainians, it will only take 10 seconds to learn.

@@Panjab_47_84 I think everyone not only knows that, but also knows that was the premise of the whole joke.

@@fordhouse8b honestly bro i commented at 3 am, that was a dumbass comment fr

For British Artillery, they still don't know where Sweden is!!!

Now I know Kung Fu!

Time on target was started in WW2, according to Ian V. Hogg. Modern self propelled artillery systems reduce the setup time and allow one gun to do a time on target shoot. The practice is at least 80 years old BUT the modern application via SP guns with automatic loading systems is a significant improvement.

@@michaelguerin56 I remember it being called Multiple Round Simultaneous Impact aka MRSI (pronounced "mercy")

The core of the Systems comes from the british AS-90 Braveheart. That could achieve the same in the late 90's....

@@Andrew-Lee91 No it doesn't. It's based on an earlier Swedish gun (FH77) and development of Archer started before BAE had anything to do with Bofors

We can swop them😊

Yeah we need to just kick Turkey out of NATO.

Turkey has issues with Sweden not handing over some people they want to prosecute

We have laws in Sweden that we have to follow, no matter what an autharian dictator demands. Turkey on the other hand, have criminal gangleaders smuggling drugs and order murdes in Sweden, that is not put in jail.

@@blackterminal For burning a Koran?

We are getting them. As of (05/04/23) the Uk now has 14 of these. All of which will be fully operational by April 2024. We have more on order which we arrive in the UK over the coming year(s). Very exciting for the British Army. Looks like a world-class bit of kit. I might even join the Royal Artillery next year to work on one of these.

I wonder if it comes with a 12v socket to run a coffee machine while they're waiting for the gun to "unload"?

@@geopolitix7770 that would not be possible. Brewing coffee on 12v is too slow need more power or more time. :)

@vilandar maybe good enough for a little nespresso shot?? The guys and gals can probably bring a thermos of hot water😎

@@geopolitix7770 I see no other solution then to brew in transit and use the 60 second fire mission coffee break.

@@vilandar use the recoil, waste heat and pressure from the barrel to brew some gnarly espresso.

BAE Systems AB is a British company and was awarded the contract to develop and manufacture Archer but Sweden pick their weapons systems very effectively

@@Gez492 Sorry, but it's a Swedish design and product. The English had nothing to offer the Swedes (apart from money) that's all. Swedish engineering. Same thing with the CV90, and the Gripen. Heck, the English can't even build their own fighter jets anymore. Also, the Germans had to be brought in to update their Challenger 2 tank, and their own developed service rifle with was atrociously bad. Not to forget their miserably lousy IFV they are wasting money on. Listen, leave it to the Swedes and the Germans. They have the know-how, the quality and the brains.

@@Gez492 BAE Systems AB/Hägglunds is a Swedish defense company

I think it’s actually a joint venture. If Sweden was so great why did they ask BAE to make it. Listen we are all on the same side here, it’s a great bit of kit. That’s all that matters. Soon the Russians will be finding out how good it is.

@@andrewstevenson9747 It's made by BAE Systems AB/Hägglunds. A Swedish defense company bought by BAE

It can't hold up against a concerted dron attack. Warfare has changed forever.

@@dlighted8861 No but there will be smart counter-measures against drones in the future which will make this vehicle extremely effecient if used in conjunction with that said smart counter measurements against drones.

@@dlighted8861 The drones would have to be in the air at the same time at the same place to locate and attack the Archer. It will fire and be gone within one minute.

There are other videos of Archer demonstrating this.

I think that is indeed one if its features but not a very new thing. Been around since WW1 to synch impact time. That said though, to do it within this narrow timeframe is nothing short of amazing! 🤩

And the Russians are fighting against it. And today, the first archer has been destroyed.

12 will be sent

@@heinedenmark To start with, yes. Doesn't mean that the other 12 won't be sent later.

That is brilliant to hear.👏🏼

Hell of a time to have shares in the defence sector.

Lanzet drones are waiting to Say hello

Stop. I just came.

The Gripen is still my fave. But I really like the Archer too, and recently the boringly named but cute CV90. 🙂

Many of them aren't entirely Swedish (Gripen, Excalibur, NLAW for example) but they have a very reliable defence sphere there, never "the best" but always very good for the much lower price in many cases.

@@Retrosicotte so what is better than Archer?

@@Retrosicotte Gripen E is literally the best. 10 years newer tech base than F-35. And the old Gripen C version scored just behind F-22 in Red Flag exercise.

logistical nightmare to transport and too wide for uk roads and can’t be transported by trains. so likely not

@@thom0243 we're getting them 👍

@@passenger3 allot more likely we’ll be getting K9s actually. archer isn’t even really benign considered because of these issues

@@thom0243 well as mentioned in the video it is offered on various carriers that the UK requires

@@user-zh9kc7tw4n which redeems it allot but then if we have it on a HX2 (like we would) then that would diminish its shoot and scoot capability

Since both Erdogan and Orban are deep in Putins pocket, wouldn't it be better to reform into a NATO 2.0 and exclude them?

A guy from the future here. The US cracked Erdogan's balls forcing him to stop his stupidity by blocking Sweden into NATO. Now it's Hungary's turn who are just like Turkey, "personal conflicts overweighs European security". I hope Turkey learned their lesson.

*Bofors

@@ThorSuzuki1 L52 155mm, Rheinmetal gun. Built under licence by Bae Bofors.

@@captainbuggernut9565 No. The gun used in the Archer system is a modified FH77. FH77 was 100% Swedish made by Bofors, long before BAE came in to play.

@@captainbuggernut9565 The barrell yes, the haubits itself is all Swedish made by old Bofors FH77 guns...

BAE do the marketing, this is designed and manufactured by what was Bofors.

of course, like King Tiger in 1945...

What game you playing?

Why ? This is made by a London based company....

@@witness1013 bae have a lot in Sweden....

@@witness1013 Check you facts. BAE is only the owning company, due to buying majority shares of the original Swedish companys.. Development & production is still in Sweden. 😉

@@leifiseland1218you are so correct. In fact it is the reason why smaller countries can still produce state of the art weaponry. For example, the engine for the Saab Gripen is American, I believe the same as the Super Hornet. I’m Australian, and we have here many multinationals including BAE, Lockheed-Martin, Boieng Australia, Navantia, Thales, etc., all delivering locally specific products. Boeing Australia’s MQ-28 Ghostbat is just one example under development. It’s not too different to when British Leyland, Chrysler, Mitsubishi, Toyota, General Motors Holden, Ford Australia all designed and built built cars for here not all that long ago…

Maybe if they ramp up production. Norway backed out of the project as it kept dragging on.

"Ivan" will also need to learn the word ryssjävel.

Thanks for answering a question I had (at leas in part). Do you know how many rounds fit in the autoloader/how frequently it needs to top off?

@@BlooCollaGal From what I've read, they're supposed to have a 20 round capacity.

The British army should acquire lots of these. As should every European country anywhere near Russia. And they should also all ensure domestic production of artillery shells on a scale that ensures that they have enough on hand for at least a couple of years of intensive fighting, while at the same time having production capacity sufficient foe having three of four years worth of ammo on hand after the initial year of fighting.

You managed to get the word BAE in there two times. Good job!

A product originally developed in Sweden for the needs of the Swedish army. Later acquired by BAE Systems.

very weird comment

Swedens been building artillery for 800 years. Don't you worry about this being real. With Excalibur it wouldn have been even longer.

Then go look at the original BAE footage that shows it.

@Retrosicotte agreed. Also it's a freaking ridiculous clip. Blows my mind!

There's a vid on KZfaq somewhere with the complete sequence.

I'd estimate (from my head) we are top 3 in the world inventing and producing high-tech military grade systems

21 rounds.

The Archer is fully automatic. The crew don't even need to step out.

​@@jonasmelander Thanks anyway, I already knew that 😃

Will the UK be sending any Ajax?

@@kristofferhellstrom I do hope the UK Government does not give the Ukrainians Ajax armoured vehicles, the reports are all bad on ajax vehicles. The Ajax vehicles would be better off, giving them to the Russians. Then Ajax vehicles can cause Russian Troops, to be made Disabled from operating them. As the Ajax vehicles, has caused many British Soldiers to become Disabled, also these British Soliders have needing to be medically discharged from the Army, as a direct result too! So when you consider, the British Army, only has around 14 working protypes or preproduction test vehicles. Though hundreds of these Ajax armoured vehicles are in different stages of production, is very worrying to British Taxpayers. With Ajax programme already costing, the British Taxpayers Billions of Pounds already too. When the British MoD gets things wrong, they do in a big way and costing a Great Deal of Money in the Process too!

Gripen isn't really 'domestic'. 80% of its components were designed and made in the US and UK.

@@Retrosicotte I thought raven05 was italian ?

@@Retrosicotte false

I would like to see Sweden being a member of NATO. Even instead of Turkey if necessary.

@@matso3856 Raven05 is British, made in Edinburgh.

Good news, it has a direct fire and a 7.62mm MG too...

@@geopolitix7770 oh dang...neat

Ideal for home defence.

I guess it's also up the Ukrainians how much training they want. What training they need and want. But of course the more training they got the better it is. And then there's also the crew maintaining and reparing these things that will be Ukrainians. So lots of moving parts and people.

From what I have seen of the Ukrainians, they will use these systems better and more effectively than what we thought was possible in the first place.

From what I've read about the joint troop training efforts, even the mobilized Ukranians are super engaged in the training and it's been quite an eye opener for those delivering it. I can only imagine how motivated the artillery troops would be getting their hands on this. Like kids in a candy store! And I'm 100% sure the Swedes would be delighted to assist.👍

It is all kept pretty hush-hush but as I understand, Ukrainian crews are undergoing a two- month training session on this system as we speak. My guess is that this was all planned out and set into action before the deal was even publicly announced. Anything else would be criminally stupid. Chanses are we won't hear anything else of this before the archers show up on the battlefield. A weapons system like this is vurnerable to sabotage and I don't doubt for a second that Russian agents are operating inside Europe an Ukraine.

Damn boy.. you hunting king kongs? 😂

@@TheGnue Nah, rabbits. But they're really quick and hard to hit, so I need something with a bigger kill area than a shotgun.

@@roboslug7582 Well I do belive you have what you need.. if you can locate it, afterwards

The Archer Artillerisystem 08 is not the same as the Archer system, as the Arts08 is a Sweden(Norway) only system, with the dumper carrier. You can put an Archer unit on anything you want, albeit an HMX, a boat or your grandma's carrage. That system is alive and well, and what BAE is selling today

They are making a new version on the HX2 platform

Production can easily be restarted, the production line wasn't scrapped, just put into storage in wait for future orders.

Sweden has actually ordered 72 in total and the last ones are being built now so there is still the possibility of building more.

Слишком сложную и дорогую. Сама концепция военной техники должна быть иная.

Millimeter precision would be an exaggeration smh

That would be very typically Swedish.
